Uh...seeds need soaking for different reasons.  Some (Lupinus, for 
example) just need the water to "soften" them up, and soaked seeds will 
often germinate in a day ore two, where unsoaked seeds may take a week
or more.

Others need the soaking, (or better yet, washing, even with soap) to remove
chemicals that inhibit germination.
